I hope Hannah get to go to Disney. That "make a wish" foundation is quite the thing.

Still on my 52 week vacation.

Good to See Tom stopping in again.

Josiah, one day at a time, hope it gets better.

My trees are starting to look bare so I think it's time to move the leaves to the road for pickup.

That 52-week vacation sounds good, John. I have a few years to go though.

I'll be flying out that direction for Veteran's Day weekend. Flying into Boston tomorrow afternoon and riding a bus to Concord, NH to see my parents. Haven't seen my family out there since moving, so I'm really looking forward to it.

It's Sunday and quiet around here. Busy day today grocery shopping, rake and mow lawn, NASCAR this afternoon. Watching #2 BRAD KESELOWSKI today to see if he will make the chase.

Turkey day coming fast. Stores are already starting the black Friday hype. That's one day I don't set one foot in a store. Back on the farm Friday after thanksgiving was the day that I would go out back and to a little target shooting with the deer.

Good morning John!

We're getting our first snowfall this afternoon, about 5-8" they say. Looks like the same storm is headed your way in a couple days.

I was just watching the news and they are talking you are getting quite a bit of snow and wind. Upstate New York going to get slammed. Here in CT we will see snow on the northern boarders toward Mass. Rain and wind for most of the state on Sunday.
Of coarse this is our NASCAR weekend at our friends out in Tolland. And of coarse I will be out in the yard drinking Guinness by the fire. Guess I will get a little wet.

Good evening everyone.

Looks like we got about 4-5". Lots of blowing though, and lousy driving conditions made worse by everyone who forgot what snow looks like.

Morning on this nice day in CT.

Watching the weather for your area Tom and people up there seem to like bumper car action. lol

Got my Smoked turkey recipe out last night. Have to pick up a few items and I will be set for the turkey day. brought the smoker home from the campground and I will smoke the turkey on the patio.

Note of interest; I have the Garmin RV760 GPS and the suction cup thing to hold the GPS to the windshield doesn't hold very long. So I went on line and found the bean bag with holder for $16. So I went to Target in Newington and found that it was $25. I mentioned it to the girl on the floor and she told me to go to the desk up front. I did and they looked it up on line and found it for $16 on Amazon. So it cost $16 dollars right at the counter and didn't have to go through any lines.
